Financement par Vertical
Shrimp financing spans a broad CAPEX range, from extensive earthen-pond expansions to super-intensive biofloc and indoor systems. Lenders differentiate sharply by biosecurity maturity, disease history and offtake structure.
Underwriting focuses on biosecurity, disease exposure (WSSV, EMS, EHP), post-larvae sourcing and offtake pricing. Extensive systems are lower CAPEX but higher yield volatility; intensive / biofloc systems are higher CAPEX but more predictable — each attracts a different funding stack.
Extensive & semi-intensive sites lean on working capital and equipment leasing. Intensive / biofloc / indoor sites qualify for structured project finance and often blend green finance envelopes when energy and water efficiency are measurable.

Short answer
Bankability comes before capital. For Shrimp Farming Financing, lenders and development banks expect a costed CAPEX and OPEX model, an engineered scope, offtake evidence and permitting status. FishMatch Group prepares that package with you, then introduces it to equipment finance providers, leasing desks, export-credit agencies and blue-economy programmes matched to your country and project size.
Before you request quotes
Budget ranges depend on system type, not on country alone. Pond and cage projects are usually the lowest capital per tonne of annual output, while recirculating (RAS) projects carry the highest equipment and energy share because filtration, oxygenation and backup power are mandatory. Reliable numbers come from a sized bill of quantities — species, target tonnage, water source and grow-out temperature — not from a generic price list. Use the FishMatch calculators to size the project, then submit an RFQ so quotes are priced against the same specification.
Most spread between quotes comes from scope, not from margin: included spares, installation and commissioning, control and automation level, materials (HDPE vs steel vs FRP), certification and testing, delivery terms (EXW vs CIF) and warranty length. Two quotes are only comparable when they answer the same specification. A structured RFQ fixes the scope so differences reflect real engineering choices.
Feed is normally the largest recurring cost, followed by energy (highest in RAS), labour, fingerlings or post-larvae, health management, water treatment consumables and maintenance. Financing cost and working capital for the first production cycle are frequently underestimated. FishMatch cost tools separate CAPEX from OPEX so the payback assumption is visible rather than implied.
